Items 1.01.           Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

The registrant’s principal subsidiary, Enterprise Bank and Trust Company (the “Bank”), has implemented a supplemental life insurance plan (the “Plan”) for a group of senior management that includes the Bank’s executive vice president and chief operating officer, John P. Clancy, Jr., its executive vice president and chief financial officer, James A. Marcotte, and its executive vice president and chief information officer, Stephen J. Irish (the “Executives”).  Each of the Executives was enrolled in the Plan as of July 27, 2006.  Under the terms of the Plan, and subject to various vesting and forfeiture provisions, if the employee dies while employed by the Bank or following his or her retirement, the employee’s designated beneficiary(ies) will be paid a lump sum benefit determined in accordance with the Plan.  The benefit also vests prior to the employee’s death or retirement upon the employee’s termination of service to the Bank due to permanent disability or upon a change in control of the Bank.  Subject to satisfying the Plan’s vesting and other requirements, the Executives would have the following life insurance benefits as currently provided under the Plan:  Mr. Clancy — $190,080; Mr. Marcotte — $170,500; and Mr. Irish — $154,077.

The Bank will fund its obligations under the Plan through the purchase of single-premium life insurance policies on the lives of the employees enrolled in the Plan.  Subject to vested benefits that may accrue under the Plan and applicable law, the Bank is free to modify or terminate the Plan or the benefits of any individual participant under the Plan at any time.

A copy of the Plan as it applies to the Executives will be included with the registrant’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending on September 30, 2006.
